-: Okay, so Ball State has a really good way
of kind of initiating the growth of networks.
Right, so freshmen are supposed to stay in dorms
their first couple of years.
And depending on what you want to pursue,
or what you don't know you want to pursue,
they'll put you in that dorm.
You know, it's these really subtle ways
of starting to grow a network for you
and grow opportunities for you
that I've never noticed at other universities,
or at least weren't pitched to me
when I was 18 and in high school.
So my first year, I was an advertising major
with a minor in TCOM, and I was stuck in Johnson
and met so many people there that I'm still connected with
because we all studied similar things, right?
We were all fascinated by the same things,
whether it be camera work or storytelling.
So that was one way it definitely made an impact on me.
There's a plethora of opportunities at Ball State.
